  • 7. 

    Which of the following compounds would have the highest boiling point

    • (A) I

    • (B) II

    • (C) III

    • (D) IV

    Correct Answer
    A. (D) IV
    Explanation
    Compound IV would have the highest boiling point because it has the strongest intermolecular forces of attraction. This is because it is a polar molecule with hydrogen bonding. Intermolecular forces, such as hydrogen bonding, increase the boiling point of a compound by requiring more energy to break these forces and convert the substance from a liquid to a gas. The other compounds (I, II, and III) do not have hydrogen bonding and therefore have weaker intermolecular forces, resulting in lower boiling points.

    Joint stock company is managed by

    • (A) Elected committee

    • (B) One or two member

    • (C) Elected board of directors

    • (D) Owner

    Correct Answer
    A. (C) Elected board of directors
    Explanation
    A joint stock company is managed by an elected board of directors. This is because a joint stock company is a type of business organization where the ownership is divided into shares, and the shareholders elect a board of directors to make decisions on behalf of the company. The board of directors is responsible for overseeing the company's operations, setting strategic goals, and making important decisions. Therefore, option (C) is the correct answer as it accurately describes the management structure of a joint stock company.

    Anthocyanidins posses

    • (A) Flavylium (2-phenylchromenylium) ion skeleton

    • (B) 2,3 –dihydro-2 phenylchromen -4- one

    • (C) 2- phenylchromen -4- one

    • (D) Flavan- 3,4-diol

    Correct Answer
    A. (A) Flavylium (2-phenylchromenylium) ion skeleton
    Explanation
    Anthocyanidins possess a flavylium (2-phenylchromenylium) ion skeleton. This means that the structure of anthocyanidins includes a flavylium ion, which is a specific type of ion with a 2-phenylchromenylium skeleton. This structure is important for the color and stability of anthocyanidins, as it allows them to exhibit vibrant colors in plants and also contributes to their antioxidant properties.

    Substituent inductive and field effects

    • (A) Are proportional to their proximity to the functional group

    • (B) Are related to size of the group

    • (C) Are unrelated to proximity to the functional group

    • (D) Both A and B

    Correct Answer
    A. (A) Are proportional to their proximity to the functional group
    Explanation
    The correct answer is (A) because the inductive and field effects of a substituent are influenced by its proximity to the functional group. The closer the substituent is to the functional group, the stronger its inductive and field effects will be. Therefore, the effects are proportional to their proximity to the functional group.

    Material used for packing during Accelerated stability studied is________

    • (A) Open containers

    • (B) Packaging similar to proposed packaging

    • (C) The containers convenient for sampling

    • (D) Any of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. (B) Packaging similar to proposed packaging
    Explanation
    In accelerated stability studies, it is important to use packaging that is similar to the proposed packaging for the product. This is because the stability of a product can be affected by factors such as light, moisture, and oxygen, which can penetrate the packaging. Therefore, using packaging similar to the proposed packaging allows for a more accurate assessment of the product's stability under normal conditions. Open containers and containers convenient for sampling may not provide the same level of protection and may not accurately reflect the stability of the product in its intended packaging.

    • (C) In human physiology it is found in nervous tissue

    • (D) All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. (D) All of the above
    Explanation
    Cephalin is a type of phospholipid that is chemically identified as Phosphatidylethanolamine. It is a principal constituent in bacteria and is also found in nervous tissue in human physiology. Therefore, option (D) "All of the above" is the correct answer as all the statements mentioned in options (A), (B), and (C) are true about Cephalin.

    Right to privacy as a Fundamental Right is implicit the

    • (A) Right to Freedom

    • (B) Right to Personal Liberty

    • (C) Right to Equality

    • (D) Right against Exploitation

    Correct Answer
    A. (B) Right to Personal Liberty
    Explanation
    The right to privacy is closely associated with personal liberty. Personal liberty encompasses the freedom to make choices and decisions without interference from the government or other individuals. The right to privacy ensures that individuals have the right to keep their personal information, actions, and relationships private. This includes protecting personal information, controlling access to one's personal space, and maintaining confidentiality in personal matters. Therefore, the right to privacy is implicit in the right to personal liberty.

    Which of the following is directly titrated with acid

    • (A) Aminophyllin

    • (B) Phenytoin

    • (C) Sulphynpyrazone

    • (D) Phenobarbitone

    Correct Answer
    A. (B) Phenytoin
    Explanation
    Phenytoin is directly titrated with acid because it is a weak acid and can react with a strong base (acid titrant) to form a salt and water. This reaction allows for the determination of the concentration of the phenytoin in a sample. Aminophyllin, Sulphynpyrazone, and Phenobarbitone do not have the same acidic properties as phenytoin and therefore cannot be directly titrated with acid.

    Tachyphylaxis refers to which of the following

    • (A) Responsiveness increased rapidly after administration of a drug

    • (B) Responsiveness decreased rapidly after administration of a drug

    • (C) Responsiveness increased rapidly after maintenance of a drug (hypersensitive)

    • (D) Responsiveness decreased rapidly after maintenance of a drug (desensitized)

    Correct Answer
    A. (B) Responsiveness decreased rapidly after administration of a drug
    Explanation
    Tachyphylaxis refers to a rapid decrease in responsiveness after the administration of a drug. This means that the body becomes less responsive to the effects of the drug over time, requiring higher doses to achieve the same effect. This phenomenon is often seen with certain medications, such as opioids, where tolerance develops quickly, leading to the need for higher doses to achieve pain relief.

    Assuming the same molecular weight and carbon content, arrange the following compound classes in the expected order of increasing pKa (lower acidity): sulfonamide, alkene, alcohol and amide

    • (A) (low pKa) sulfonamide < alcohol < amide < alkene (high pKa)

    • (B) (low pKa) alcohol < sulfonamide < amide < alkene (high pKa)

    • (C) (low pKa) sulfonamide < amide < alcohol < alkene (high pKa)

    • (D) (low pKa) sulfonamide < alcohol < alkene < amide (high pKa)

    Correct Answer
    A. (D) (low pKa) sulfonamide < alcohol < alkene < amide (high pKa)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is (D) sulfonamide < alcohol < alkene < amide. This is because the acidity of a compound is determined by the stability of its conjugate base. In this case, sulfonamide has a highly stable conjugate base due to resonance stabilization, making it the least acidic. Alcohol is less acidic than sulfonamide because the oxygen atom can donate electron density to stabilize the conjugate base. Alkene is less acidic than alcohol because it lacks an electronegative atom to donate electron density. Amide is the most acidic because the nitrogen atom can donate electron density to stabilize the conjugate base.
